Golly gosh, incitement to violence and intolerance is not limited to any particular religion then? Indeed, in keeping with large slices of Christian history that positively drip blood, guts, torture and ritual slaying in the name of Jesus, this Pope has opened another pandora's box of sectarian hate. Just a little stroll through the annals of the Inquisition, or historical accounts of the Crusades, or the Europeon religious wars, would suffice to demonstrate the hypocrisy of this very public rumination, but we would'nt want all that history to get in the way of such a scholarly, 'byzantine' anecdote, now would we?
What is he playing at? In my darkest musings, I don't much like the answer...
